Some of the pandemic increase in time worked may have been a net benefit to the folks working. A lot of people I know spent at least some of the time they otherwise would have spent commuting working remotely. And, since commuting sucks, ended up happier for it.

dev360, the use cases we are thinking about are ones where you want to stand up a web app so that your users can interact with your IoT devices. For those kinds of CRUD web apps, Rails is pretty good we think.
What use cases do you have in mind where the cheap concurrency would be particularly helpful?

On the custom feature side, there are two options. We think most web developers will be most comfortable implementing custom logic in their web application, which is straightforward to do.
If you need custom functionality running on the device, then you can write a custom driver for your device (which can include substantial custom logic) and use the portal to load it into your firmware image and install it.
I think our differentiation from others is that we assume the developer starts from the web application and wants to add connected devices to their app. Most other players assume a connected device and give you ways to send data from it to the cloud.

It runs pretty much whatever you want to run. Unixy underpinnings along with MS Office, Adobe Creative Suite and you can run Windows/Linux in VMs if you want. The MBP will run pretty much any tool you need for whatever job you have. Also the hardware is attractive. What's not to like other than the price?
